Letter from Harriet Beecher Stowe, Hartford, [Conn.], to William Lloyd Garrison, Jan'y 2, 1866

Stowe writes to Garrison with "mingled feelings of joy & sorrow" concerning the cessation of publication of "The Liberator". Stowe states that she is to compose a "short sketch" of Garrison's life for a series of articles she is writing for the "New York Times". She requests that Garrison direct her to a biographical work from which she may acquaint herself with the key dates & events of his life, or, should none exist, that he relay to her this information.
